Euro gives up four-month high on profit-taking
Euro fell in European trade off four-month highs on track for the first loss in three days on active profit-taking, while two-year German yields fell. Dollar rebounded from multi-month highs after strong data on US retail sales in October following remarks by Fed officials which asserted the continued efforts to bring inflation down. EURUSD fell over 0.3% to 1.0359, with a session-high at 1.0398, after rising 0.45% on Wednesday, the second profit in a row, marking four-month highs at 1.0481.

Such gains came as concerns about a wider conflict in eastern Europe subsided as the NATO stated the recent missile that hit Poland was probably a mistaken shot from the Ukrainian air defence force.
German Yields
Two-year German treasury yields fell over 0.6% today away from recent 14-year highs, in turn pressuring euro. A recent spike in yields to 14-year highs at 2.252% played a major role in recent extensive gains by the euro as the ECB prepares more aggressive policy tightening to come.
The Dollar
The dollar index rose 0.3% on Thursday away from three-month lows at 105.34, on track for first profit in three sessions against a basket of major rivals. The gains came after data showed US retail sales rose past estimates in October.

GBPJPY Holds Below the Barrier
GBPJPY pair attempted to form some positive waves to test the sideways range’s resistance at 166.8 and settles below it, as the stability below this barrier will allow us to suggest the negative attempts for now, to target 165.25 as a first station, followed by waiting to reach the initial support near 164.5. Note that succeeding to breach the current barrier and getting positive close above it will confirm regaining the bullish bias, to expect forming strong positive rally and target 167.9 initially, followed by reaching 169.
![](https://i.ibb.co/fG4pQ5k/gbpjpy.png)
The expected trading range for today is between 166.80 and 165.25, and the expected trend for today is Bearish.

The AUDUSD pair succeeded to touch our waited target at 0.6650 and bounced upwards clearly from there, to head towards resuming the bullish track on the intraday and short term basis, on its way to test 0.6767 initially, noting that breaching this level will push the price to 0.6870 as a next positive station. Therefore, the bullish will be suggested for today conditioned by the price stability above 0.6650.

Dow Jones - Index headed for August highs
Quotes of US stock indicators slowed their growth against the background of ambiguous rhetoric of officials of regional Federal Reserve Banks (FRB) regarding further prospects for raising interest rates. Thus, the head of the St. Louis Fed, James Bullard, noted that the regulator needs to continue the “hawkish” course, since the current interest rate level does not limit economic activity sufficiently. In his opinion, the target level of the value may range from 5% to 7%, however, if inflation in the USA slows down in the coming months and quarters, the US Fed will not have to tighten monetary policy as sharply as expected at the moment.
![](https://i.ibb.co/gDzg7S6/ym.png)
On the daily chart, the index quotes continue their corrective dynamics and increase, reaching a local maximum in early August at around 34000.
Support levels: 33180, 31750 | Resistance levels: 34000, 35350

EURUSD turns to decline
The EURUSD pair couldn’t manage to reach 1.04 barrier, to face negative pressure and start testing 1.0285 level now, and by taking a deeper look at the chart, we find that the price completed forming double top pattern that we expect to push the price to turn to decline, as breaking this level represents the key to confirm rallying towards 1.0175 followed by 1.0135 levels as main negative targets.
![](https://i.ibb.co/fSrtW3P/eurusd.png)
Therefore, the bearish bias will be suggested for today unless breaching 1.0370 and holding above it. The expected trading range for today is between 1.02 support and 1.0360 resistance, and the expected trend for today is Bearish.
NZDUSD Loses Momentum
The NZDUSD pair found solid resistance at 0.6200 barrier, to decline and heads towards expected test to 0.6100 level, as it lost its positive momentum, and we suggest the continuation of the bearish bias to break this level and head towards 0.5990 areas mainly. Therefore, we are waiting for more expected decline on the intraday basis, noting that breaching 0.6185 will stop the suggested negative scenario and lead the price to recover again.
![](https://i.ibb.co/NN8PZg8/nzdusd.png)
The expected trading range for today is between 0.6080 support and 0.6185 resistance, and the expected trend for today is Bearish.
GBPUSD draws negative formation
The GBPUSD pair turns downwards to move below 1.1900 barrier, as it recorded lower high that makes us suggest witnessing trend turn to the downside, on its way to achieve negative targets that we expect to start at 1.1710 and extend to reach the bullish channel’s support line around 1.1490.
![](https://i.ibb.co/0cmJxPL/gbpusd-1.png)
Therefore, we expect to witness bearish trend in the upcoming sessions, and breaking 1.1760 will ease the mission of achieving the suggested targets, while the price needs to hold below 1.1945 to continue the expected decline.
![](https://i.ibb.co/D9fVNPK/gbpusd-2.png)

NZDUSD - Investors expect a decrease in trading activity during the week
Although yesterday’s report on consumer spending with credit cards showed an annual growth of 24.8%, which is lower than the previous month’s figure (34.0%), investors found a positive driver in the statistics on foreign trade levels.

In case the price got a positive close above the breached barrier and getting continuous positive momentum by the major indicators, we expect to target 146.20 followed by reaching 147.1 levels, while turning back to fluctuate below 145.65 might force it to suffer some losses by crawling towards 144.5.

XRPUSD - Authorities are preparing to introduce restrictions for the crypto sector
In general, the market remains negatively affected by the bankruptcy of the FTX exchange, which continues to cause an outflow of investors’ funds from digital assets and may lead to the introduction of restrictions for cryptocurrency entrepreneurship by the authorities. It should be noted that US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Deputy Governor of the Bank of England John Cunliffe have already spoken out for the soonest strengthening of regulation of the sector, and representatives of the American Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) have announced an audit of the advertising policy of companies. The current market situation is pushing global regulators to designate clearer rules of operation, but some experts believe that they will only complicate the business conditions for many projects.
